23. Unfortunately I don't think the madman has anything to lose anymore

I very strongly believe he is sick, with perhaps years if not months or days left on his life. He wants to re establish the USSR and all of the Russian Empire colonies before he passes. He will start with all non NATO countries -invading as many as possible, and establish his footing in a strategic position before going all out against NATO.

Hopefully he just dies tomorrow.

It's a limited war, confined to one country. Wingus Dingus Feb 2022 #8
It isn't though. ColinC Feb 2022 #11
There is a bright line, and that's an attack on a NATO country. Wingus Dingus Feb 2022 #14
That's a dangerous line to wait for imho ColinC Feb 2022 #16
We have troops in NATO countries right now just in case the madman attacks one Justice matters. Feb 2022 #18
At this rate I'm open to "attack" being very loosely defined. ColinC Feb 2022 #19
The madman will not do that. Justice matters. Feb 2022 #21

Let's doubt it. He's not winning in Ukraine. Justice matters. Feb 2022 #24
"No fly zones" are more or less acts of war. So, no. RockRaven Feb 2022 #7
I sure hope I'm wrong, but I don't think your last sentence is avoidable ColinC Feb 2022 #9
No, we should use a small yield tactical nuke or two to target Putin, his family and end this Shanti Shanti Shanti Feb 2022 #10
Kinda agree ColinC Feb 2022 #12
We may as well launch a full first strike against them DetroitLegalBeagle Feb 2022 #13
I could go for conventional cruise missiles if we get him out in the open Shanti Shanti Shanti Feb 2022 #15
Russian "silent" nuclear subs not far from our beaches too... Justice matters. Feb 2022 #20
That would still result in war DetroitLegalBeagle Feb 2022 #22
